We had an appointment on a Saturday evening and these guys never turned up and didn't notify us either. It was a freezing cold evening and we ended up standing in front the property for 20' and they didn't show up. I will never use them ever again. Shoddy

Excellent customer service. From highlighting the property for us to showing the property to us. Spencer provided extremely personal service by finding our requirements and identifying a perfect property for us. Arranged a viewing within 15 minutes with Ben at the property.

Chadwell heath branch promised everything, delivered nothing!! Told me how my property was sought after! Auction deal was best. 60 wasted days!! Then told three weeks notice Is needed. Just false promises, very lazy leadership. Wasted 81 days!!! Don’t give them your business. Time wasters.

Agent replied · 19 June 2024

Dear HeleneThank you for taking the time to provide us with details of your experience and we are very sorry that you feel this way. Whilst our staff try hard to establish the properties that they believe will be most suitable for this process, it is impossible to guarantee interest levels. We are sorry to learn that your property did not receive the interest that was initially anticipated and we can fully appreciate the disappointment that you would have felt. It is always our aim to successfully agree a sale which benefits all parties and we regret that we were unable to do so on this occasion.Should you wish to discuss your concerns in more detail then please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Relations department on 01702 540802 or customer.relations@arunestates.co.uk and a member of the team would be happy to help you further. Kind regardsDouglas Allen

I appreciated working with Douglas Allen

Douglas Allen treated me with respect and professionalism. I was helped pretty much by everyone, but I dealt specifically with Ray and Janine. They were both helpful, polite and professional. I particularly appreciated Janine's efforts and availability when it came to the nitty-gritty of dealing with the conveyancing teams.
